J U D G M E N T

_______________

 

1. This is an application for a company to be wound-up on the grounds that goods had been sold and delivered to this Company and the Petitioner had not been paid for those goods.

2. The amount of money that the Company is said to owe to the Petitioner is about $1.5 million. The statutory demand was served on 21 November 2001 and no payment was made thereafter. The petition was presented on 15 December 2001. No affidavit has been filed on behalf of the Company and no other creditors, whether supporting or opposing, have given intention of appearing today.

3. In the circumstances, as there is a presumption that the Company is unable to pay its debts, I will make the usual winding-up order.
